Graphics Tablet quick question.

I know this topics been covered before but i can't find the right thread! (or remember which forum it's in!)

1. Who was it that got the wacom bamboo tablet recently

(within the last 2 months i think)

2. is it any good?

3. would you reccomend going for an A5 or A4 sized tablet?

Sorry to be posting on a topic that i know has already been covered extensivley.

Skip.

It was jonesy. Use the search feature above and type in the words wacom tablet. The thread you're looking for should be in the top five.

Yes, it was me.

I am the proud owner of a wacom bamboo. I really enjoy using it, tho some functions take a little getting used to (copy/paste is my main issue)

Mines an a5 wide version. I wouldnt want to go bigger, purely because I dont want to move my arm extensively. With the a5 version, you can do everything without having to move your hands too much. The pen fits snugly in your hand so you can hold it even when typing. Its certainly different to using a mouse, but in my case it has the advantage of keeping other users off my puter when I'm not there

For some things in cad, I swear I'm quicker than I used to be

Is it true what they say? If you take two tablets in the morning you'll feel better?

Do you have to get the tablets with all the included "bonus" software or can you just get it as a standalone product?

I have the tablet, but no software. ( I dont know whether any extra software came with it because it arrived and was installed by our IT dept when I was off work)

Ah right, i'm not gettin it through work 'cos i want it at home as well as at work, but all the ones i see have this or that bonus graphics package. (non of which support dwg's so can't use them for renders.)

There are two versions of the tablet. They are the Bamboo and the Bamboo Fun. Each comes with an installation CD that has the appropriate drivers and user manual on it. The Bamboo Fun also comes with a DVD that includes Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0, Corel Painter Essentials 3.0 and Nik Color Efex Pro 2.0. Drivers can also be downloaded from the Wacom website.

That depends on what tablets you take

Nice Feedback on the Tablet,,, I may Aquire one pretty soon.

I like the line "For some things in cad, I swear I'm quicker than I used to be"

but only for CAD
